Here is the Moskvitch 2137 that I spotted earlier this year in one of the back yards.
The Moskvitch (also "Moskvich" without the "t") 2137 is a station wagon / estate version of the Moskvitch 2140, the last true Moskvitch meaning a compact RWD classic sedan.
The Moskvitch 2137 was discontinued in 1985 so this car is at least 30+ years old.
Some old advertising photos.

Two types of the rear cargo door.

It is the last car in the Soviet Union / Russia to have finned vertical taillights which were retained from the previous model to facilitate rear cargo door operation.

As I said the M-2137 is a version of the M-2140 and identical to the sedan but the rear part and the cargo area are actually from the previous cargo version - the Moskvitch 427.
